This is probably one of the more interesting ideas I’ve seen in a while. I was surfing around this form and someone commented on how his buddy makes money during school:

minx: I got a friend who buys fabric with popular logos on it, and makes pillows out of it to sell on eBay. stuffing is about five dollars a package, and the fabric rarely goes for more than five dollars a yard. He makes $30 or more per pillow. No, it’s not going to make him rich, but it did get him an xbox and the GBA with two games apiece all bought at full price

Pure genius! I tried searching for these popular pillows, but couldn’t find them. If anyone has a link, let me know and I’ll post it. I’ve been tempted to try something like this - the only thing that scares me is the use of company’s logos and making a profit off of it. You know, the whole copyright thing. Regardless, whoever thought of this idea is a smart person, keep it up!
